It was no British Airways first class option for Tottenham’s new centre forward, or even a business class seat on an Iberia flight, as he instead had to put up with a budget Ryanair job – Levy probably put a ban on him bringing any extra baggage as well.

The 28-year-old was arriving in London for a medical before finally signing on the dotted line at White Hart Lane and he’ll no doubt have been left hoping Levy can push the boat out a bit more when Spurs travel abroad in the Europa League.

It looks like Spurs may be needing that £85m for Gareth Bale after all.
